What's unfortunate is that the other person/people in your life have failed to reciprocate your capacity to care.
I don't think being a demanding woman is the answer, just my personal opinion.
Perhaps the people in your life are not the people that deserve you.
Below is a few of my favorite quotes I like to live by:
"Your value does not decrease based on someone's inability to see your worth."
"It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice."
- John Cassis
“The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, sensitivity, and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern. Beautiful people do not just happen.”
- Elizabeth Kubler Ross
I once had a "friend" who quoted the following quote to me. In the end he didn't end up being the standup person I had hoped he'd be and I followed his quote for him. There are many good people in the world. Surround yourself with people who care about you and your well being. Life's too short not be happy.
"We teach people how to treat us. Don't have someone in your life for one more second if they aren't making it better."
(And thank you for sharing. It's not easy to talk about such things in ones life to people you don't really know.I'm honored.)
